Abel Ibarra is the man. That is all.

I understand. A better-fitting analogy would be that the Air Force, for example, shows no distinction between female and male as it pertains to the term “Airman” or (plural) “Airmen”. Male or female, you’re an Airman.
Same can be true for Soldiers, Sailors, Marines. You might be a male Soldier, or a female Soldier...

...except when they’re Ma’am. Edited to add source: 10 years in the Army, 6 years in the Air Force, I’ve never seen or heard anyone call a female Officer “Sir”.

Ah. I’ve only owned cheap harbor freight ones, and the chuck wouldn’t allow the blade to go any other way. Learned something new today.

0:32 in... is that sawzall blade installed upside down?

How dare you destroy the fragile narrative I have running in my head?

Second thought, what about a “fascia” swap from the GS in this article w/a TourX? That would take care of the front. Perhaps even the side skirts would carry over. Only issue would be rear arches and rear bumper...

The problem I see is that that fender cladding “flows” into the bumpers and the side skirts. So along with removing the cladding, you’d have to install euro-only rocker panel/skirts and front/rear bumpers. Still though... if this thing was good enough to warrant all of that effort, I’d probably do it. If it wasn’t

Sigh, no. That was the first question I asked a few months ago as well. If you remove the black cladding over the wheel arches, there’s an indentation for the trim, a non-smooth-looking metal lip and I believe holes for the trim clips to mount. EDIT: I should mention the above information was provided to me by a Buick

I don’t see 19 cup holders, either.

Put a Ford badge on it, I’d believe you if you said 2020 F150 concept.

I recall a billion years ago these had something to do with the product code you checked on the build sheet at your local GM dealer to order something like this? Is that not the case anymore?

FWIW, I had to disable my adblock to get these to load w/o being cut off.

July of 1988, my family & I were watching “thunderboat” (jet and piston powered hydroplane) races on the Ohio River in Madison, Indiana.

These things are doing to the trails what jetskis did/are doing to lakes everywhere. Pros: they’re easy enough to operate that it makes the trails more accessible to the common man without the skill required to operate a 4 wheeler or dirt bike. Cons: see Pros, above.

Eager to hear whether or not your friend can get this smogged. Good luck on the drive!

True story: while I was recovering from back surgery, doped up on whatever, laying flat on my floor, I binge watched all 8 seasons and 162 episodes of Magnum PI.

This. This right here is why nobody watches car and/or military-themed movies or shows with me.

I 100% agree with the above.
